"In previous auditions, trainees were sleected to simply join a generation. Those auditions were kept mega-secret. The winners would join a new generation and only join a team when they were promoted, like Yuihan joining Team 00 when she became a successor, or when there was a shuffle event or formation of a team, like Mayuyu originally being a trainee during the formation of Team 00." Miku said. "The draft is different. AKB0048 members of each team will be able to select trainees to join their team as draft trainees; when those are promoted, they'll already have their team. The whole thing's being broadcasted live a lot, and it takes longer. The draft candidates also actually perform during 0048 events."
